"How gracious of you to come at last around to that position. Alas, your last statement is factually incorrect. US schools -- such as the HS I graduated from -- used to teach about religion and it was fundamentalist Christians who got those classes shut down -- such as in the HS I graduated from -- because they didn't want their (nearly adult) children even hearing about other religions.

You'll forgive me in light of this if I think you are a cheeky liar and you believe no such thing, but you say it because you think it is pretty."

I have visited with 15 of the worlds faiths, I have read the Qu'ran, Bible, Gita, Guru Grand Sahib, Book of Mormon, and so on. I have pray in a Sikh Gurdwure, been in a WICCA ritual a number of times, been to a Synigoge and a Eckenkar temple. I think compairing my intentions against yours YOU are the LAIR. I didn't care for your kind till you started yell "seperation of church and state" and started sue anyone who dared talk of their faith in public.

"Feel free to substantiate any of those. You sound like someone who gets his news from chain emails."

I know you will never accept ANY proof of your wrongs. BUt here they are rocket scientisit...

Christian parent choose to spend their own money to choose to give their own children a class. Not government money, not on government property, and not required of anyone... yet they get sued.

A law allowing religious medical staff to bow out of non- life threating operations given that they give notice and the procedures they are against are not the main role of the company. Again sued.

You know the Christmas cases... which don't seem to expand to other faiths like Jews and Muslims. Too numerous to list.

You also know of the Under God case in which 15% of the population get to silence the wishes of the majority, because they are offended.

A case in which a student was force to take back christmas cards in school because they had a religious meaning, and again during easter she was singled out because of her giving her friends cards.

A class teacher Islam in califoria in which students were required to dress and act like a muslims for a week. A action that if it had been the christian faith would have been opposed.

I know more about other faiths they you any day of the week. I would bet you a month pay that is the case. While I recognize that some on the right do want to be as oppressive as you are being. I belong to the crowd that feel freedom is the voting of all views including all faiths. That includes the strange ones you most likely never heard of Coadia, or the Realiens.
